Maine's 46th annual Kenduskeag Stream Canoe Race, which winds up in downtown Bangor, is set for this weekend.

Bangor police are telling motorists in the area during Saturday's race that it will cause some minor traffic delays and a detour at the Six Mile Falls Bridge on Broadway. The bridge will have heavy pedestrian use during that period, causing traffic to move slowly. Some streets will be blocked off.

The recent dry weather is raising questions about conditions for Saturday morning's 16.5-mile trek, which starts in Kenduskeag village and winds up at the confluence of the stream and the Penobscot River in downtown Bangor.

Race organizers say the stream is rocky and lower than they've seen in recent years.
